A B-flat major triad contains which of the following notes? (1 point) Responses C C D D E E F-sharp
A B-flat major triad contains the notes B-flat, D, and F.
A B-flat major triad contains the notes B-flat, D, and F.
To find out which notes are included in a B-flat major triad, we need to understand how triads are constructed. A triad is a three-note chord consisting of a root note, a major third interval (two whole steps above the root), and a perfect fifth interval (three and a half steps above the root).
To build a B-flat major triad, we start with the root note, which is B-flat. From there, we count up a major third, which is four half steps. In this case, starting from B-flat, we count up four half steps to reach D. Finally, we count up a perfect fifth from B-flat, which is seven half steps. Starting from B-flat again and counting up seven half steps, we reach F.
Therefore, a B-flat major triad contains the notes B-flat (the root), D (the major third), and F (the perfect fifth).
None of the given responses (C, D, and E) are correct. The correct answer is B-flat, D, and F.
